Poor Bruno; even when he wins he loses.
I know that Ian's a huge fan of Charles Schulz's work on "Peanuts" and I can't help but think that a significant portion of Bruno's personality is informed by the eternal loser, Charlie Brown. There's a pathos to Bruno at times that mirrors the angst of Charlie Brown, likewise matched by an eternal determination to get up and try again. He may be defeated right now, but you'll soon see that you can't keep a good bandit down...
